The Left would love for people who are still being brainwashed in high school to be able to vote. That’s years more before they hit the real world and realize (at least a bunch of them) what a bunch of baloney they learned!

And adults who do not pay taxes should not vote.

Raise it to 26 and require that you paid taxes the previous year.

Oh sure. Let skulls full of mush have the right to vote.

And let the dead vote too. And millions of illegal and undocumented aliens.

And while we’re at it - lets DENY the right to vote to White Men (racists, dontcha know) and anyone else who might not vote for a liberal.

Better idea: Raise to 26, and you pay no federal taxes until the same age. No taxes, no votes.

Umm.... You can vote when you are EIGHTTEEN,

Hence a Teenager

Liberals are so stupid.

Also before anyone says Raise it to 26. I am only 26 and I have been a responsible adult for 8 years!

Who am I talking about? Felons? Guess again.

Let me try - you're talking about millions of citizens who's votes are invalidated by wholesale democrat voter fraud every election cycle.

Hope your next question is tougher.

Now that I think about it, TECHNICALLY, under Obamacare, my “children” are still able to stay on my insurance until they are 26, so I think you are right!

No voting until you are 27, and ONLY if you paid taxes the year before!

Horse manure, it should be raised to age 25 or upon voluntary military enlistment.

Illegal aliens pay taxes and go to jail too. I guess Newsweak thinks THEY should vote too!

It would be better to go back to the way it was, No Property Tax Paid, NO VOTE.

100 million able bodied adults out of work. Clearly not everyone is paying taxes (can they afford to).

So, since 7 year olds are accountable for their actions they should have a vote in the household too?
